Hubble’s Picture of the Week is a celestial pair known as Arp 4. The two galaxies appear deceptively close. However, in reality, they are not close at all. One of the pair is over ten times farther away from us than the other.

Astronomers observed the Fomalhaut system and found the impact of recent collisions around the star. This is the first time astronomers have witness such events. The collisions are believed to be between asteroids and planetesimals.

NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope observed an exoplanet called PSR J2322-2650b. This exoplanet orbits a rapidly spinning neutron star. But what is most strange about the exoplanet is the composition of its atmosphere — it mostly contains molecular carbon and helium.

Using IXPE (Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer), astronomers have answered a long-standing question — Where do the X-rays in a supermassive black hole’s jet come from? To do this, IXPE had to observe a galaxy cluster for more than 600 hours over a 60-day period.

Deal | Humble Bundle has added a new game bundle to its current collection — the Games Under 5 Hours bundle. This bundle is packed with 10 games, all of which are compatible with Steam Deck, except for The Forest Quartet.

NASA has announced a plan to use the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope to view our Milky Way in unprecedented detail. Roman’s infrared vision is expected to pierce through the densest part of the galaxy and unveil up to 20 billion stars.

NASA Science Calendar Image of the Month is a sprite over Château de Beynac, France. Sprites are short-lived. They last only a few milliseconds. So, witnessing and capturing one is a big deal. Images of these transient events are helping scientists understand more about how and why they form.

Deal | Humble Bundle's thirteenth holiday rebundle is here — Dice and Destiny Encore. The bundle, which had its first run back in April, is now available again with the same items as before. It will expire on December 20.

MIT researchers have developed a technique to stack transistors and memory directly on the back of computer chips, potentially slashing the energy costs of AI and high-performance computing.

Spiral galaxy NGC 4388 has featured in the ESA/Hubble Picture of the Week. The image revealed a stream of glowing gas flowing out from the galaxy’s disk. This gas has captured the interest of astronomers, and they are now seeking possible answers.

Astronomers detected a powerful explosion called a gamma-ray burst (GRB). But this particular GRB was not like any other that has been observed. It lasted at least seven hours, making it the longest-ever GRB.

Deal | Humble Bundle has brought yet another bundle back for a rerun — Humbling Soulslike. The bundle, which had its first run in September with a total of seven games, is now back with six games.

MIT researchers have developed a collaborative framework that allows a large “boss” model to direct a team of smaller AI agents, achieving superior reasoning efficiency and accuracy compared to leading solo models.

A recent study suggests that most smaller galaxies may not have supermassive black holes in their center. This new finding goes against what scientists have previously known about galaxies and black holes. If proven to be true, it could reshape our understanding of how black holes form and even affect future space missions.

Deal | Humble Bundle has made an addition to its long list of rebundles for this holiday season — Phunky Physics Encore. The bundle, which made its first appearance back in September, is back for a rerun, but it is short one game.

A major Chinese shipbuilder aims to revolutionize maritime trade with a zero-emission, nuclear-powered vessel capable of carrying 25,000 containers, though regulatory hurdles remain.

Deal | The latest Humble Bundle holiday rebundle is here — June Tunes Encore. This rebundle is loaded up with 7 games, all of which are rated Steam Deck Playable or Verified, except for Rhythm Fighter.

Researchers studying the pieces of asteroid Bennu have discovered three ground-breaking things inside the samples — sugar, a mysterious gum-like object, and a huge amount of dust. These findings could tell us more about the early solar system and the origin of life.
